The Crusades were called because of religious devotion but the call was answered because to the desire for political and economic gain.

A call went out for soldiers to take Jerusalem from the Seljuk Turks.  

Many second and third sons answered the call. In the Holy Land they could carve out principalities and become Lords. In Western Europe the land was all taken. The call was answer by most Crusaders for dreams of political and economic gain.

The Eastern Roman Empire had appealed for help became of the amount of land and control that they had lost to the Seljuk Turks.  

The agreement with the Pope was that the Crusaders would liberate not only Jerusalem but the lands lost to the control of the Turks.  

When the Crusaders liberated the land they kept the land for themselves. This showed that the reasons that the Crusaders answered the call was not religious devotion but economic greed.

Haha, hope this helps. <3 !

What forms did dissent take and how were they handled for the south in the civil war?
Gre4nikov [31]

The Confederates established the first mandatory military recruitment in the history of America in April 1862. It was obvious that the South, with a total population of 9 million (including 4 million slaves) needed to use its entire male population to repel the North, which had a population of 22 million in 1860. In the south, men who had 20 slaves were exempted from recruitment, however, the mandatory program aroused the resentment of most of the army because most were poor. With the war, the south was left devastated, with great material destruction and an economic one. The growing precariousness of the Confederates led to about one third of the army deserting.

While the northern economy grew the southern one sank victim of the inflation, of the shortage caused by the war, reason why the population had many disadvantages to feed itself and to continue with its normal life.
